[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think what matters most is not the ages, but rather that you not pressure the kids, and have a realistic understanding that they are unlikely to blend very much. And that the kids not have to make major sacrifices for the sake of your marriage.[/quote] This, absolutely. If you think it’d be easier if only kids were different ages, you are already in a mindset where you are looking at this the wrong way. PP is correct, you need to expect less “blending,” and you are gonna need to bend of backward to make sure THEIR schedules are as easy as possible with multiple houses, not yours. - Adult child of divorce who did not have these things [/quote]
